You see yourself sitting on top so self assured - happy,
|
But when your parents bail you out you somehow feel not free.
|
You're bored to tears in school, it's not like what you thought at all.
|
Trouble is not the answer. i know what you want to know:
|
Slow down;
|
Why you wanna move so fast?
|
Why you wanna walk so far?
|
I think i know what you want.
|
Your father toys with you hoping his evil game will win.
|
In order not to loose, the trick is not to play with him.
|
Anything good you do is added to your past - your wealth.
|
You'll need it all the day you finally choose to ask yourself:
|
Slow down;
|
Why you wanna move so fast?
|
Why you wanna walk so far?
|
Wait and find out who you are
|
And how you're gonna make it last.
|
Something's gonna change, now re-spell your name.
|
Tired of highs and lows, now derail your train.
|
And if this letter finds you lost and out of touch - lonely,
|
I hope you know by now you mean so very much to me.
